A friend and I stayed in a 'delux' twin room for 3 nights. The exterior of the hotel is very attractive, the interior comes across a little more kitsch than luxury. All the rooms are unique. Our particular ground floor room cannot be described as cosy. The high ceilings, dark wood furniture, faux frescoes, stained glass windows, single 'four poster' beds, lack of practical storage and dark room dressing contributed to a quite austere atmosphere. The atmosphere is consistent with the reception and bar area. However other than this I cannot fault the hotel. The grounds are beautiful, the propert is spotlessly clean throughout, the food (including breakfast buffet) is excellent, the spa is good and the staff are very helpful. The regular shuttle to the local train station is fantastic. Although the large outside pool was empty for cleaning during our stay, it would be lovely in the warmer summer months. I would stay at this hotel again. It is perfect for a base outside the city if you are looking for a good value place to relax after a day sightseeing with only a 15 minute journey to Valle Aurelia near The Vatican. I wouldn't stay here again if I were looking for a base to explore the city's nightlife.

The hotel is located a half-hour train ride from Leonardo Airport/Rome city center. The setting is rural, quiet and the rooms are comfortable - it applies to the whole atmosphere. Very good service from all employees who demonstrate great flexibility when required. Here the wish is that the customer has a pleasant and relaxing stay. Very romantic place we would like to come back to. Kitchen and wines must also have my compliments.

The restaurant was excellent, we had all our dinners there. Quality dishes, friendly service, excellent wine selection. The wine suggested to us by Antonio was perfect at reasonable price. We have never ever dinned in a hotel's restaurant for 3 consecutive evenings. We did it here, thanks to excellent food and service. Needless to say that breakfast was more than adequate....
Also we want to thank Antonio for his services at the restaurant and his assistant (the girl who lives near Fiumicino airport, I do not remember her name now and my wife is not here to ask her).....
Golf course at walking distance, plus small food shop with local products. We bought Parmigiana and Pecorino....
Guistiniana is very close from where one can take the train to Rome, plus Fiumicino is 25 min away and that suited us very much.
We highly recommend short or long stay at the Castello. We will go back for sure at the first opportunity....

We had a delicious well priced meal at the restaurant our first night and the complimentary breakfast was more than adequate with tons of options. The shuttle bus to the train station worked very well and getting into Rome on the train was quite easy. We would highly recommend this as your home base when visiting Rome. It's just enough outside of the hustle and bustle of Rome while not leaving Rome inaccessible. One word of caution is that the wifi didn't work for our entire stay which I have seen as a common complaint (you are staying at a castle so what do you expect really!) so don't go with plans to do your trip research during your stay. Go and enjoy. You will love it!!

We ate here for lunch, dinner and breakfast the following morning. All meals were lovely. The staff were friendly and helpful too.
If the weather is good hit the pool, it's fantastic! We were the only ones around the pool..Probably because there was a wedding on in the main building.. Either way, the barman sorted us some cocktails and towels before we dived in.
Make sure you notice all the old photos and paintings of the castle that are mounted around the interior. Brings the history of the place to life.
We would certainly return here :)

I wanted to surprise my wife by staying one night and having dinner in the excellent restaurant here. We loved the food at the wedding and I thought she'd love the surprise. This trip unfortunately had very tight timelines and we were having plane issues in Brindisi. I was emailing back and forth with Eleonora at the castle having to change plans many times as our delays kept getting worse.
Finally, it was obvious that there was no way we were going to make it before the restaurant closed and we were going to miss dinner. Eleonora working with the chef and staff planned out a delicious meal that we could eat whenever we finally made it in.
At midnight we showed up and were taken to our room, moments later an amazing full course dinner showed up that was phenomenal. We are every bite and they saved my anniversary surprise and made our short time at the castle magical.
Thank you all for taking such good care of us,

We weren't told you could buy train tickets at the front desk, so when we got dropped off at the station with the defective ticket machine, that took a couple hours off the day (no cell, couldn't speak the language).
Another day the shuttle failed to pick us up at a prearranged time, which happen to some other guests who joined us waiting at the pick up spot. Two blown appointments in one day. And then i saw some folks not able to get a reservation in the restaurant when the place never seemed to be totally full. The problem is that you're in the countryside. Getting to another restaurant is a bit of a trip, and you don't suspect you won't be able to eat at the hotel's own restaurant.
These things aren't the end of the world, and i'm sure the staff could improve the internal communication and provide more pertinent information at the front desk. Solvable problems. In the meantime, book your dinner reservation in the morning and reconfirm any shuttle rides. Still had a lovely time, and check out the gigantic pool. If you're lap swimmer, it's awesome.

The restaurant was fantastic - we had the taster menu and the romantic dining experience, as well as lunch twice. Although located outside the city centre, it only took 20m by train, costing 3 Euros for the two of us each way! Would recommend to anyone and would definitely stay again if returning to Rome.

We stayed here for two nights on our last stay before flying back to the US, and it was nice to kick back and relax in the serene setting. Tip - enjoy the rooftop deck - they have tables and great views up there. The last night we were there, we just wanted something simple, so the front desk was nice enough to order local pizza delivery for us, which we ate on the rooftop deck. They kept many of the original details of the castle, and I probably took over a 100 pictures of this place. Highly recommended - you can‚??t stay in an 800 year old castle in the US!

If the main goal is a visit it Rome, and you don't have a car, I'm not sure this would be the best location. But that was not our main goal. We wanted a relaxing last day after our active vacation. The Castello is beautiful. You really fell like you're in a special place. Because it is in a remote location, it is quiet and provides a sense of tranquility. The kids really enjoyed spending their last night in a castle. In addition, there is a very nice swimming pool and the grounds are beautiful. The hotel also has a very nice restaurant, if a little pricey. We had reserved a family suite, which for us was nothing more than a large room with a double bed and 2 single beds. Even if it was not exactly was I expected a suite to be, it suited out needs, especially for 1 night (might have been a bit tight for a longer stay). Overall, we had a great experience and would recommend this hotel to anyone looking for a quiet get away near Rome.

It is really charming and every area has been furnished tastefully so that it matches the ambiance of this wonderful building. Our only disappointments were that the grounds and steps (lots of them) down to the pool was in need of attention and that the pool is also open to the public which means that it can be a little bit noisy at times. The service from all members of staff was great and we would definitely recommend it.

The room was clean, comfortable and spacious. I had the basic room since I was travelling alone and it was by far the most luxury I had in my two weeks of travels, with gorgeous views, two air conditioners, tv, minibar, a four poster bed and marble bathroom including full size bath and bidet.
The pool is just gorgeous and very large, a perfect place to take a swim without feeling crowded by other guests. The staff even set my umbrella for me! And the poolside bar is well provisioned. There are quite a number of steps to get to and from the pool (down to the pool, up to get back), but you get a beautiful view of the trees on the way.
The food in the restaurant was outstanding and well priced, I got a three course meal and two glasses of wine for ‚?¨50 and it was divine, and I was seated outside in the courtyard. The breakfast was a little lacking, there was no fresh fruit. But what was available was very good quality.
I got a transfer to the airport the next morning for ‚?¨60 which was definitely the easiest option, and I was more than happy to pay for the convenience. Still far cheaper than a taxi and personally I don't fancy driving a hire car in Italy!
The hotel offers a free shuttle service to the local train station and it takes two trains (FR3 then Metro line A) to get to the centre of Rome (about 45 mins and ‚?¨3). Easy enough if you're keen, but I think this is more of a destination hotel, somewhere to relax and unwind. I can't recommend it highly enough!

It's difficult to believe that this Castello is literally on the edge of Rome's urban sprawl. Situated just away from some major motorway intersections that connect it with Fiumicino airport and the centre of Rome, it lies in a quiet rural oasis of its own, surrounded by rolling fields, woods and country lanes. Close your eyes and you could be a million miles away in a remote, fortified town. Rooms are well appointed and the breakfast, lunch and dinner were all of the highest possible standar...

Close your eyes and you could be a million miles away in a remote, fortified town. Rooms are well appointed and the breakfast, lunch and dinner were all of the highest possible standards. The Castello is also blessed with a 25 metre outside pool that I believe is open to non-guests for a small fee, so definitely worth a visit on a hot day in Rome.

The hotel is very clean and beautifully decorated and the grounds and pool are lovely. As it only has 23 rooms, it always feels quiet and peaceful even when hotel is full. Staff are very helpful and attentive and speak excellent English. Takes 25-35 mins into centre of Rome from leaving hotel and free hotel shuttle was always available when required. Pool was always quiet and even on busier days when locals are allowed to pay to use facilities, it was lovely to be amongst local Italian families rather than all holidaymakers and they never allowed too many people in so there were always sun loungers available for hotel guests. It provided everything we needed for a relaxing countryside location with gorgeous views but close enough to city to enjoy the sights. Will definitely return to this hotel in future.

What can I say that hasn't already been said. We only stayed one night on our way back to the United States but like other posters, splurged on the tower suite too, for our 25th wedding anniversary.
During check in, just as the clerk had almost processed us in, she motioned to turn around where there was another employee standing with 2 glasses of juice on a tray. Nice touch!

Dinner on the terrace was absolutely magical and not any more expensive than some of the more touristy places we visited during our vacation. Service was impeccable and the food was fine. Same for breakfast; a lavish spread and waiters doing whatever was necessary to make sure we didn't need anything.
For the price, this hotel was worth every penny. We did have some hiccups getting back and forth to the city proper, which obviously is not the hotel's fault, but be aware that many taxi drivers are not familiar with the location and we were overcharged both ways and at the mercy of unscrupulous drivers. Again....we don't blame the hotel, we're merely letting others know to be cautious when using a taxi.
We would absolutely stay again and recommend this to everyone we know who is looking for real relaxation and the magic of a special occasion. Quite possibly the best hotel stay we've ever had.

The pool is quite a walk down many stairs but worth it. The appetisers and dinner during the wedding reception were very good. It was the perfect setting for a fairy tale wedding. It is a 30 to 45 minute taxi ride to get here from central Rome, and the fare costs somewhere between 45 and 65 Euro. If you are vacationing in Rome, consider staying here for a couple of nights.

We attended my brothers wedding in August, where the venue was beautiful and the atmosphere and the food was amazing. Great rooms. It is in a remote location where there was very little in the way of transportation. We did run into trouble with the staff. We regularly had difficulty in arranging taxis. Many of the taxi drivers were corrupt and asking for ridiculous amounts of money per person and per bag. The staff offered minimal help, when trying to reason with the taxi drivers. We travelled with a large group, and the inconvenience was tolerable, until it came to checking out. It turned out there was trouble with taxis availability. Luckily half of my family had successfully made it to Rome city centre with lifts from other people, however there were 3 of us left behind. We waited for 30min, when the hotel assured us they were calling a taxi, we went back inside to see where the taxi was, as we grew impatient of waiting outside and it was getting late, around 8pm. It turns out, they didn't get a taxi, and said they tried, but weren't successful. What was the most irritating was that they lacked communication in the fact that they were not successful as they knew we were waiting. They didn't even offer to arrange any other options as they knew we were waiting to go back to Rome and we weren't going to be leaving unless we had some means of transport. We waited inside so they would definitely arrange something while myself and my two sisters, both under 18 waited. We could see that we were pestering them, however, that is their job. Finally, they offered to drive us to the train station free of charge. By this time, it was 9:30pm and the train station was deserted and fairly scary experience. We eventually made it to Rome, with two trains, and 5 hours later. I definitely think that they could have managed this better, and I am sharing my experience to help this situation not happen to anyone in the future. In summary, I believe that the staff could definitely be more helpful, and considerate.Consider renting a car. The venue however is beautiful .

I truly loved staying at this hotel! Walking into our room and opening a window that looked over surrounding area was like a warm welcome! We stayed here for 4nights and I loved being outside of Rome yet just a short train ride into town. The hotel has a free shuttle to train. After touring all day it was so nice to come back to the quiet of this hotel. The food at the restaurant was wonderful! Great pool !

We ate in the restaurant at the hotel and the food was excellent. I ordered pappardelle pasta along with seabass and both were excellent. The pear crumble with ice cream for dessert was the best capper for my Italian holiday.
The junior suite was a nice room. Comfortable bed, spacious bathroom with slippers and thick robe, what's not to like?

I stayed at this hotel for one night before a business trip. As it was located a little way away from Rome city center, it took some time to find a taxi driver willing to take me there. Once there, I found the staff very friendly and accommodating. Rooms were good if a little basic. The restaurant was well laid out and the food was enjoyable.

The entire staff, especially the gentleman with the British accent at the front desk and the other gentleman who helped us with our bags. My wife and I were very hungry, however my wife was not interested in any of the selections on that version of the restaurant menu, unfortunately - but this Michelin star level restaurant heated leftover food we had in our bags instead to help make my wife and my time at the end of our vacation more enjoyable. This generosity made our night and the end of our vacation perfect, which we cannot thank this establishment enough for. It is the nicest thing that any hotel has ever done in our extensive travels - ever - and was very much appreciated. Beyond this top-notch service and kindness, this hotel is a once in a lifetime experience not to be missed. It really tied our entire vacation across Spain, France, and Italy together being able to stay in an actual castle. We toured the entire property, which is flawless and beautiful. The breakfast is one of the best we have ever tasted, as well, by the way. I am happy to give this hotel and staff my highest possible recommendation. Even if you only stay a single night, it is worth it!

Staying here was one of our favorite memories of our trip to the Rome area. We spent the last two days of our trip relaxing here. The building is a nicely kept up castle, the grounds are beautiful, the restaurant is comfortable, and food is very good, One night, due to a wedding, we "had to" dine on the rooftop next to the tower which allowed us to watch the sunset over the vineyards. We could also look down on the wedding reception in the courtyard which was fun - including the colored lights and dancing. The pool is large and well attended by staff including a burger shack place for quick lunch eats. We were there on a weekend and the pool seemed to be open to non-guest locals who were a bit rude, but such is life. Breakfast was a bit disappointing because it was entirely bread and pastry based.
Our bad experience here was in wanting to nap after arriving and discovering that the A/C was broken. They said they didn't have another room for us and instead brought some fans. Nothing like being in a hot room with hot air blowing on you. We did lots of sweating that afternoon and night until it was fixed the next day. (Maybe it actually helped keep down the extra pounds from the rich food.) They claimed they would give us some kind of discount somewhere/somehow but we never saw it.
It is a bit of a drive from the city - so that when you are on property, this is pretty much it - but we would definitely stay here again for a couple nights. It was a nice place to get away and relax (when the A/C works).
